I have a Ex Girl friend that we have a 7 year old son together. I have the primary custody of my son and have been doing very well with him which shows in his attitude and school progress. Me and my son's mother are pretty much fighting over stupid things, but I still love her, but tired of fightintg with her. I just want to be left alone and do what I need to do for my son, he has a issue with this as well but I am working to help him through it. My only problem is that for sake of having to get into any more figths with her, I just want to be left alone and do what we need to do for our son, so I am thinking about asking her for child support which would eleminate any possible fights all the time. She feels that she will give him what ever he wants and needs IE: video games, cloths etc etc. Would I be wrong to ask for child supoport just for sake of argument? Please excuse any mispelled words here just got finish with a fight with my son's mother for doing this.

Generally speaking, it is the legal and moral responsibility of each parent to contribute to the financial support of their children. If a child lives with one parent, it is customary for the other parent to offset the expenses by contributing child support.
Video games are not a need. Adequate clothes, a warm and safe home and food are NEEDS.

She needs to pay child support; but your best bet is to go through your local child support division. Visitation should be set up through the court system as well. Your son does not need all the drama that is going on. Good luck.

Ask for child support through the court system...that way she is legally required to take part in her son's life...otherwise you could end up with no support and if it's fair for a man then it's fair for a woman too. It takes two to make a baby and it takes two to raise a baby.

You are not wrong for asking for child support. Why you didn't before I don't know. But you need to go through Domestic Relations. Therefore it will be taken out of her check and you won't have to deal with her. Then you can buy what your child needs when he needs it.

she should pay child support, as the mother of the child she has a obligation to provide for him financially, you didnt create him by yourself and you shouldnt have to do it alone, there will always be arguments but the both of you need to put aside your differences and think about the best interest of the child, he has nothing to do with the things you both fight over and he needs to be number one regardless of the difficulites you are both having with each other....

you ought to objective speaking on your buddy and spot if she would be able to be dropped at reason to get a house line or a cellular telephone to be left at domicile for emergency use. so a great way as i will tell there is no longer a criminal age that defines while a baby is in basic terms too youthful to be left domicile on my own, it is extra a remember of no remember if the baby has the skill to guard themselves for the quantity of time they're left on my own. while you're stable acquaintances you ought to additionally share along with her that her daughter is expressing concern at being left on my own however i won't help yet ask your self that she's already heard this. your own intervention is in all risk as stable as you may get as i do no longer think of there is something you may document her for, no longer from the information you presented, different than no longer offering a telephone for emergency calls.
